THE BLESSING OF THE SUN

The sky was a deep color

Of azure blue

When I saw the sunshine

Peeking through.

 

I lifted my face to catch

The sun’s rays,

And felt the warmth like

A fire’s sweet blaze. 

 

It melted the ice around

My cold heart,

As I felt the tears in

My eyelids start.

 

The warmth stayed with me

For several days

When I opened my soul

And gave God praise.
